National Deworming Day is aimed at administering Albendazole tablets to children to destroy worms in the stomach. For holistic growth, these tablets are a must for children.”
He said: “Albendazole tablets are given to children aged between 1-19 years of age. He said: “The albendazole tablet kills worms inside the stomach of children. It also helps treat malnutrition and irritability in children and enhances their memory. These tablets are safe with no side effects.”
